David Thompson was an excellent guide at Oregon Caves!
Oregon Caves art has perfect texture; it captures my taste.
As slippery as it was we still had fun all along.
As we traveled through the cave it was wet so we went a slow pace.
The cave walk made us bend but it made our legs strong!

My favorate animal in the cave is the bat.
The cave gave me lots of kisses.
A river flows through the cave which goes lap lap.
The ranger listens to questions. I like it when people listen.

Do you know that the ground in a cave is called stilagmites?
Do you know that things hanging down from the ceiling is called straws?
Ceilings in a cave have stilactites.
On the outside of the cave there is no stilactite or stilagmite; there is moss.

There is a cool rock in the cave called marble.
We stood over bolders far below.
